stand alone complete [unedited] To quote someone, no one can teach you how to write-because life is the one who would teach you how to pen the beginning, climax, and end of your story-but what if you don't like how life writes it? Athanacia Norainne Samonte only has one goal in life-to write until she's out of breath. She loves writing, as much as how the sun always shine after the night has fallen back to slumber. Kaya naman nang makita ang oportunidad na maging script writer ng isang student director na si Kiran Conjuanco-she did her best to be the only option that Kiran could consider. He was her stimulus to write better so he could only set his eyes on her written crafts. Yet, writing was never easy. In this economy, she has a lot to consider when it comes to pursuing passion over practicality. She has to brace herself from the criticisms that barks and bites her whenever they can. She has to see that she's never going to be the best writer-because there will always be someone who writes better. She has to accept that sometimes writing. . .isn't just writing. When life gives her a script that should have been shelved, can Nacia act off script from this film turning into tragedy?

Belle Evangeline Caballero has always been introverted all her life. Siya 'yung tipong tao na panigurado makakasurvive sa isang horror o thriller movie dahil unang-una, hindi siya OA at pangalawa, an entity or a killer would find her boring because she won't give them the satisfaction to see her reactions. In short, nonchalant siya, that's how most people perceive her. She finds it hard to have a connection with others because of her inability to be vulnerable. And then she meets Lucien, the personification of the sun, and the first person who she thinks she's able to have the special connection she was yearning for. She wishes to deepen their connection into something more... intimate. But there are two "tiny" problems... Lucien likes men. And worst of all? He's nothing like the person Belle thought he was. ~ Language: Taglish
